Smooth ER makes lipids and breaks down drugs and alcohol.
hope this helps. :-)
organelles and endoplasmic reticulam
There are two kinds of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in a cell. Rough ER is peppered with ribosomes and that makes proteins. Smooth ER lacks ribosomes and that produces fats (lipids).
It moves oxygen food, and water around the cell.
This is if you're talking about cell organelles. There are two kinds of Endoplasmic Reticulum - Smooth and Rough The rough houses the ribosomes which are essential to protein production and cell growth. However, both types of reticulum serve as passageways for different substances of the body.
They are not lysosomes. They are peroxisomes. (Reference: 12th edition of Guyton and Hall's 'textbook of medical physiology'.)
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
No because if they been connected then it be smooth endoplasmic reticulum or the rough endoplasmic reticulum and it will be one of the both :p
The portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that lacks attached ribosomes is called smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). It is involved in lipid metabolism, detoxification of drugs and toxins, and calcium storage and release in muscle cells.
Two types of Endoplasmic Reticuli exists, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of proteins -{from through}- VIA the ribosomes embedded within its structure. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of lipids and steroids.
smooth endoplasmic reticulum creates lipids and steroids for the cell
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
there is really no definite size of a smooth endoplasmic reticulum, they range in size. :)
